The overtime game started immediately, and the Chinese team replaced Zhao Wenkang and Huang Yu with Bai Shoushan and Li Yongxuan. The formation of the Chinese team has also changed, after Huang Yu got off the field, Tang Ling's position was closed a little further to the middle, and Yan Tao and Li Yongxuan played three central defenders, and Bai Shoushan played the back waist, responsible for the midfield sweep, and had to help the backfield fill the position at any time. Xu Ziyi returned to the avant-garde position, so that Xu Ziyi had more opportunities to move forward.

Germany kicked off first in the first half, and after the referee's opening whistle, Gomes passed the ball to Kroos, who in turn passed to Gundogan.

The Chinese team did not press past as they did in regular time, and An Rong's customized tactical request for them was to put defense first and then find opportunities to counterattack. An Rong is to let everyone conserve their physical strength as much as possible, and break out in a wave when necessary, whether they can succeed in the counterattack. Because if there is a mistake in the attack, it is okay, after all, you can do it again, if there is something wrong in the defense, then there is no play. That's why An Rong warned the players not to attack blindly, otherwise they would have no physical strength to defend, and everyone would have to stop here.

Although there are Bai Shoushan and Li Yongxuan, who have just been replaced, these two players obviously have no ability to change the situation of the battle. Their physicality complements the main squad and plays a supporting role in the midfield defence, rather than a leading role. If An Rong wants to survive this difficulty, he still has to look at the performance of those main players.

The formation of the Chinese team was pressed relatively backward, even Zhang Shujie and Li Mu retreated to the backfield, and the German team also boldly attacked, but they could only go to the back of the Chinese team about 40 meters away, and they could no longer attack. Even if you barely hit the ball in, it will be destroyed by the Chinese player.

"We saw that the Chinese team put on a defensive formation, Zhang Shujie and Li Mu were involved, like this kind of situation of the whole team's defense, one less person can actually not be seen, and it can even be said that there is no impact. ”

After hearing this, Xu Yang took He Wei's words: "That's true. Eleven to ten is not like two to one, three to two, you can see the gap in the defense at a glance, and it is not so easy to judge if there are many people. However, when it comes to counter-attacking, the side that lacks defensive players is still prone to exposing problems. ”

"That's right. So as soon as An Rong came up, he defended first and didn't attack first. Of course, this is also related to the large physical exertion of Chinese players, this kind of retreat because the running range is not large, the players are closer to each other, and it is more convenient to take care of. If it is really suppressed as soon as it comes, then the distance between the players will be far apart, and the running range will also increase, which is very difficult for the Chinese players who have already consumed a lot of physical strength. Bai Shoushan and Li Yongxuan are an exception, the two of them are physically fit at this time. ”

Kimmich's cross from the flank was headed out by Li Yongxuan, who is 1.9 meters tall and strong, and has an advantage over any German attacking player in the battle for the header. His overhead fell on the edge of the penalty area and Kroos never used his trademark putt shot to get the ball around Bai Shoushan's outstretched leg and towards the bottom right corner of the goal.

The angle is tricky, and this is one of Kroos's most consistent aspects, no matter how chaotic the scene, whether there are defenders around or not, his pull-up shot from the inside of his right foot near the top of the box is almost always aimed at an angle, and the goalkeeper is difficult to save. Ma Junqiang was always vigilant, he had already quietly moved his body when he saw Kroos raise his feet, and the moment the ball came in, he fell to the ground and pounced, and finally slapped the ball out of the bottom line.

"Kroos' shot...... It is estimated that every time Chinese fans see him hitting the goal at the top of the arc of the penalty area, their hearts are tight, this angle is too awkward, and they don't see him deviate. He Wei also lamented Kroos's goal-scoring skills.

Xu Yang also said: "This is indeed the case. Otherwise, how could Cross be worth so much money? It's all hundreds of millions now. ”

The German team went to take a corner kick, Kroos passed the ball into the penalty area, Yan Tao pushed the ball out, Hector received the ball, and before he could stop, he was cut off by Zhang Shujie. This is also really rare, you must know that it is rare to see Zhang Shujie break the ball on the court, because he is rarely directly involved in defense.

He knocked it to Li Mu, and Li Mu gave it to Xu Zhixin. Everyone in the Chinese team's defense has returned, so even if the offense gets the ball, it can't be played out at the first time, and there are too few people in front of it. Xu Zhixin wanted to rush with speed, and he still had this opportunity on the side, but Kimmichi hit him very cunningly at this time, and Xu Zhixin, who had just accelerated his speed, was knocked out of balance, Kimmich was considered a foul, and the referee also blew the whistle and warned him verbally.

The German players took advantage of this and ran to the backfield. He Wei said: "Kimisi's is a tactical foul, although the Chinese team's counterattack is a little slower than before, but Xu Zhixin is really likely to use speed to rush out of an opportunity just now." Kimmici must not let him pass, and the German team, like the Chinese team, cannot concede any more goals. ”

Xu Zhixin took the ball out and the ball went to the feet of Chen Zihua. The German team seems to have taken into account the physical strength, not pressing in the midfield, but forming a relatively backward defensive line, the midfield defense is probably arranged in the back position, the reason why it is placed here is also to not be too far from the back line. Otherwise, the midfield defense line is advanced, and the back line is also advanced, then the backfield space will come out, and the sprint advantages of Zhang Shujie, Xu Zhixin, and Li Mu will also be brought into play.

The ball passed to the feet of Zhang Shujie, Zhang Shujie and the big penalty area were about ten meters away, he looked at Gundogan in front of him, Gundogan was a little jealous of his foot skills, staring at the ball between his feet. But Zhang Shujie didn't plan to break through, the German team's defensive position was no worse than China's, and he didn't want to waste his physical strength for no reason.

He gave the ball to Xu Ziyi, Xu Ziyi dribbled the ball horizontally outside the penalty area, Kroos posted it, Xu Ziyi reversed the ball, and saw that there was no space for him to pass the ball to the front court, so he handed it back to Zhang Shujie.

Chen Hui looked at the situation on the field and said: "At present, the Chinese team and the German team have encountered the same situation, and it is difficult to enter the penalty area when attacking. Both teams are being very careful defensively right now. ”

Shen Hao said: "That's a must, none of them want to concede a ball again, and they don't dare to concede a goal." In extra time, it's not about tactics, it's about physical strength, the Chinese team is very expensive, the German team is a little lighter, but they will definitely feel some fatigue. If anyone loses the ball first, it is still a question whether they can get it back with limited stamina. ”
